The second story is about a large kitty that had to be given up by his owner because he couldn't afford the surgery and necessary weight loss program after. He's such a cute, big, lumbering lug that i just want to love on him.

So clearly the right choice in this case is to stop watching local news so i won't find myself trying to get a pet or cry over whatever happens to these two. Feel free to share your happy pet stories or favorite gifs in the comments!
